Ukrainian freckles

Most of the times, I write here on the blog not caring much about the posts' reach. Which means, I don’t even know if the really useful posts, with tips from professionals and experienced people, are read by the ones who could benefit from it.

Remember that series of 6 posts with tips for models? (revisit them here) Well, at least one person read them (actually, google analytics tells me that those posts have been visited more than a 1000 times), but the big question is… how many people have actually used those tips?

Well, I recently did a test shoot with Anastasiya, a new face without that much experience, but who understood those tips.

She’s obviously a beautiful girl, but her lack of experience could be an handicap. However, she brought up her humbleness, curiosity and will to try and try, until results showed up.

Anastasiya knew her lovely green eyes and her sweet freckles wouldn’t be enough, though, truth be told, that’s how she got my attention. Being aware of that, she tried all sorts of poses, from classic, to more editorial, to natural looking and even to more sports/athletic ones (and no, she’s not a ballerina nor a gymnastic).

By the end of the shooting we were both happy with the results and I was even more happy, knowing that what I write here, can actually be helpful to other people 😃
